Hungry after an active morning at East Coast Park & craved spicy stuff. Ruling out food courts it was a simple choice between Kartini Indonesian or Thai Express at Parkway Parade. Picked the latter as it was new & near mall entrance, moreover Kartini's service sucks. There were three choices for the 'Sanook' set lunch menu, so I opted for the $12.90++ green curry & fried rice set which looked good in the photo. I ended up being disappointed as the Sanook entree was not green curry per se, but ac
I ended up being disappointed as the Sanook entree was not green curry per se, but actually fried rice coloured to a strange hue with green curry powder. The bowl in the menu's photo that looked like curry turned out to be spring onions topping a bowl of bland soup with some glass noodles. (My punishment for glossing over the menu.) Even the bowl of soup that comes with dry/tossed fishball noodles had more flavor than this which the menu listed as 'Chiangmai glass noodle soup' - deceptive. I Visit Chiangmai every year but I've never seen or been served anything like this type of soup. Looking for the chicken chunks in the fried rice was like a treasure hunt.
The pomelo salad was also a joke ~ I think it is not fresh but canned pomelo sacs (those they use in mango pomelo dessert) with a drizzle of fish sauce so it tasted bland, flat, monotonous. Totally different from even the cheapest street stall version of pomelo salad found in Bangkok which has chopped peanuts, sliced birds eye chilli, shallots & crispy tiny shrimps to give it an interesting mix of flavours & textures. Dessert was 1/3 of small bowl of diced sweet potato with lots of sweetened whipped cream. Not worth the price paid as the other two Sanook sets cost 30% less at $8.90.
